Here is the image that was given for the
Artarazzi Challenge this week. When I looked at the rather spooky interpretation given by
Indybev, I realised that the dancers reminded me of the ghosties and 'Cutty Sark' from the Poem Tam O'Shanter by Robert Burns. So here they are dancing with the 'deil' before Cutty Sark chases Tam on his mare, Meg pulling off her tail as they escape across a bridge - did you know that ghosts can't cross water? Robert Burns lived much of his adult life and died close to where I live. His poetry is incredible in it's observation of people and their very human failings. You can read more

ReplyDeleteI translated your blog Janice so it was better understandable for me.
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of the Poem Tam O'Shanter by Robert Burns. It still suprises me what a learn by other "participaters?" of Vron's blog.
What you made of the picture brings me deep respect. In Holland we would say " fantatisch gedaan" (fantastic)
Janice, this is phenomenal! I love it. I have been to Robert Burns' wee little cottage. I had an ancestor who used to hold Bobby Burns teas on Sunday afternoon, where they read his poetry and who knows what else.
ReplyDeleteI love your work here.
